Fineqia Expands Cardano ETN Access with Cross-Listing on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange
LONDON, GB / / March 11, 2025 / Fineqia International Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Fineqia') (CSE:FNQ)(OTC PINK:FNQQF)(Frankfurt:FNQA), a digital asset and investment business, announces the cross-listing of its Fineqia FTSE Cardano Enhanced Yield ('YADA') Exchange Traded Note (ETN) on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange in Germany.
Issued by Fineqia's European subsidiary Fineqia AG, YADA (ISIN: LI1408648106) is the world's first ETN to deploy crypto assets on decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols to generate yield. The cross-listing on Stuttgart Stock Exchange, one of Europe's leading trading venues for digital asset securities, enables broader European market participation in YADA. It aligns with Fineqia's commitment to bridge traditional finance with blockchain-based investment opportunities, offering investors regulated exposure to Cardano's token ADA. The coin was mentioned by U.S. President Donald Trump in a social media post for potential inclusion in a U.S. strategic cryptocurrency reserve.[1]
Digital asset Exchange Traded Products (ETPs) generated more than $2.2 billion in trading volume from March 2024 to February 2025 on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, as per ETFBook. They also reported that the exchange had the fifth highest trading volume in Europe for digital asset ETPs in the last 12 months, underscoring the significance of its status for digital asset issuers.
'The Stuttgart listing is a significant milestone in broadening investor access to the Cardano ecosystem through a regulated financial product,' said Bundeep Singh Rangar, CEO of Fineqia International Inc. 'Cardano is sought after as a top 10 cryptocurrency by market cap.[2]'
With digital asset trading volumes surging across European exchanges[3], Fineqia's expansion of YADA's availability reinforces its ambition to expand access to crypto related financial products. The Stuttgart listing aligns with broader industry trends, where institutional adoption of blockchain-based investment solutions continues to gain traction.
Stuttgart hosts ETPs issued by companies such as 21Shares, BitWise, CoinShares, VanEck, WisdomTree, and others, reinforcing its status as a key marketplace for institutional grade digital asset investment vehicles.
The YADA ETN, initially launched on Jan. 24, 2025, on the Vienna Stock Exchange, is benchmarked to the FTSE Russell index. Fineqia recently hosted a webinar in partnership with FTSE Russell to explores the key differences between Cardano and Bitcoin that can be seen at: https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/9819/624726.

US-China trade talks to open in London as new disputes emerge
US-China trade talks in London this week are expected to take up a series of fresh disputes that have buffeted relations, threatening a fragile truce over tariffs. Both sides agreed in Geneva last month to a 90-day suspension of most of the 100%-plus tariffs they had imposed on each other in an escalating trade war that had sparked fears of recession. Since then, the US and China have exchanged angry words over advanced semiconductors that power artificial intelligence, 'rare earths' that are vital to carmakers and other industries, and visas for Chinese students at American universities. Advertisement 3 President Trump spoke at length with Chinese leader Xi Jinping by phone last Thursday in an attempt to put relations back on track. REUTERS President Trump spoke at length with Chinese leader Xi Jinping by phone last Thursday in an attempt to put relations back on track. Trump announced on social media the next day that trade talks would be held on Monday in London. The latest frictions began just a day after the May 12 announcement of the Geneva agreement to 'pause' tariffs for 90 days. Advertisement The US Commerce Department issued guidance saying the use of Ascend AI chips from Huawei, a leading Chinese tech company, could violate US export controls. That's because the chips were likely developed with American technology despite restrictions on its export to China, the guidance said. The Chinese government wasn't pleased. One of its biggest beefs in recent years has been over US moves to limit the access of Chinese companies to technology, and in particular to equipment and processes needed to produce the most advanced semiconductors. 'The Chinese side urges the US side to immediately correct its erroneous practices,' a Commerce Ministry spokesperson said. US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick wasn't in Geneva but will join the talks in London. Analysts say that suggests at least a willingness on the US side to hear out China's concerns on export controls. Advertisement 3 US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick will take part in the talks in London. One area where China holds the upper hand is in the mining and processing of rare earths. They are crucial for not only autos but also a range of other products from robots to military equipment. The Chinese government started requiring producers to obtain a license to export seven rare earth elements in April. Resulting shortages sent automakers worldwide into a tizzy. As stockpiles ran down, some worried they would have to halt production. Trump, without mentioning rare earths specifically, took to social media to attack China. Advertisement 'The bad news is that China, perhaps not surprisingly to some, HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US,' Trump posted on May 30. 3 China dominates the mining and processing of rare earth minerals. REUTERS The Chinese government indicated Saturday that it is addressing the concerns, which have come from European companies as well. A Commerce Ministry statement said it had granted some approvals and 'will continue to strengthen the approval of applications that comply with regulations.' The scramble to resolve the rare earth issue shows that China has a strong card to play if it wants to strike back against tariffs or other measures. Student visas don't normally figure in trade talks, but a US announcement that it would begin revoking the visas of some Chinese students has emerged as another thorn in the relationship. China's Commerce Ministry raised the issue when asked last week about the accusation that it had violated the consensus reached in Geneva. It replied that the US had undermined the agreement by issuing export control guidelines for AI chips, stopping the sale of chip design software to China and saying it would revoke Chinese student visas.

Vanishing immigration is the ‘real story' for the economy and a bigger supply shock than tariffs, analysts says
Protests over ICE raids in the Los Angeles area this weekend highlight the crackdown on undocumented workers at businesses and the overall impact of immigration, legal or otherwise, on the economy. The collapse in immigration represents a bigger negative supply shock than President Donald Trump's tariffs do, Deutsche Bank said. President Donald Trump's mobilization of California National Guard troops to protect immigration officers from protesters highlights his crackdown on undocumented workers and the economic impact of a sudden drop in labor supply. Protests in Los Angeles began on Friday, when armed federal agents clad in camouflage uniforms, tactical vests, and helmets arrived in armored vehicles to carry out a raid on a clothing wholesaler. It was the latest in a series of similar high-profile operations at businesses around the country. Also on Friday, the Labor Department issued its monthly jobs report, which showed the U.S. workforce shrank in May as the number of foreign-born workers saw the biggest back-to-back declines since 2020. That comes after a surge in immigration during the Biden administration helped boost economic activity. According to a Deutsche Bank analysis of data from U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, the number of encounters at the Southwest border has plunged to 12,000 people per month since Trump's inauguration from an average of 200,000 during the year-and-a-half period between January 2022 and June 2024. 'While everyone is focused on the impact of tariffs, the real story for the US economy is the collapse in immigration: down more than 90% compared to the run rate of previous years, equivalent to a slowing in labour force growth of more than 2 million people,' George Saravelos, head of FX research at Deutsche Bank, wrote in a note on Friday. 'This represents a far more sustained negative supply shock for the economy than tariffs.' While Trump has pointed to weaker payroll growth as reasons for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, his immigration crackdown gives the central bank, which is already wary of the inflationary effect of his tariffs, another reason to wait and see. That's because a workforce that is growing more slowly doesn't need as much hiring to absorb the additional labor supply. In fact, even as average payroll gains have cooled to 124,000 a month this year from 250,000 in 2024, the jobless rate has hovered around 4.2% since last summer. Wall Street sees a lower breakeven rate for job growth, or the amount of hiring need to keep the unemployment rate steady. By the end of this year, that pace should fall to 90,000 per month from 170,000 now and 210,000 last year, according to Morgan Stanley, which cited deportations and slower immigration. Deutsche Bank warned the collapse of immigration will have broader implications in financial markets, including on the dollar, which has already been battered by Trump's aggressive tariff campaign. 'Last year we were writing that the US was benefitting from a goldilocks mix of high employment growth and low wages precisely because of high immigration numbers,' Saravelos said. 'If recent immigration trends continue, it must follow that over the course of the year the reverse will happen. As the 2022 energy shock showed, a negative supply shock is not good news for a currency.' This story was originally featured on
